How Bot Click Refund Services Work for Ad Platforms

How the bot refund process works

1. Install the agent — Add SeaText to your site (under one minute) and activate the Bot Protection Agent.
2. Traffic scanning — The agent monitors paid traffic from Google, Meta, TikTok, Reddit, and other supported networks, separating real buyers from bots.
3. Evidence collection — For each suspicious session it captures forensic data (IP behavior, mouse movements, scroll depth, timing anomalies) that meets platform compliance standards.
4. Report generation — SeaText produces refund-ready reports formatted for each ad network's dispute workflow.
5. Submit for refund — Your team files the evidence through Google Ads, Meta Business Manager, or the respective platform's invalid-click appeal process.

Prerequisites

• Active paid campaigns on supported platforms (Google, Meta, TikTok, Reddit, Bing, LinkedIn).
• SeaText script installed site-wide so the agent sees every paid landing-page session.
• Admin access to the ad accounts to file refund requests.

Common mistake

Assuming the service automatically files refunds. SeaText supplies the evidence; your team (or agency) must submit the claim in each platform's interface.

Verification step

After the first report generates, open the SeaText dashboard → Bot Protection → Evidence Log. Confirm each flagged session shows a session ID, timestamp, network, and the forensic fields the platform requires (e.g., Google's "invalid click" reason codes).
